Why:Lots of good links in one place; something different/change of pace in the classroom.

RWLO Title: Quick. Let's Collaborate Using a Wiki

Description: Students collaborate using an editable webpage called a Wiki.

Course:
e-Learning Part 2 a Faculty Development online blended course

Rationale:
The rationale is to introduce faculty to the use of social software as part of a blended course involving trends in e-Learning. In doing so, faculty will develop an understanding of the uses of Wikis, will use a Wiki as a learner, and will think about potential applications to their context.

Setting and Delivery:
I will use this RWLO in this blended course. It will be a learning task, after a face to face workshop related to the notion of Social Software.

Why?
I am currently facilitating a 4 week blended series on e-learning with faculty. A learning task for this week is to contribute to a Wiki. I would like to broaden the introduction through the use of this RLWO.

Using “Real World Learning Objectives to Engage Students” is a rwlo that I plan to use during professional development classes that we will be holding at our local school district. I attended this class at the NECC in Atlanta and the presenters (Marlene Morales and Jakeisha Thompson) did a wonderful job!!

RWLO Title: Quick. Let’s Collaborate Using a Wiki!

RWLO Address: http:// http://www.ciese.org/pathways/rwlo/search.php?filter=tech&secondary_id=22

Description: This RWLO provides instructors with the background information, resources and techniques to foster student telecollaboration using an editable webpage called a Wiki.

Wikis provide students with an opportunity to collaborate on a document/webpage via the internet and provides a means for them to publish their work individually and collaboratively on the web.

Your Course: Faculty workshop on integrating Web 2.0 technologies into learning.
Rationale: This RWLO will be used to introduce faculty to a Web 2.0 application and how such a technology may be used integrated into their course, either in the classroom or in an online course.

Setting/Delivery: This workshop will be take place in a PC Lab.
As an introduction to the workshop the instructor will give a brief overview of what Web 2.0 means and a brief overview of some typical applications that are being used in education like Blogs and Wikis. This will lead to using his RWOL .The topic of the Wiki for collaboration will be ideas on how to use a Wiki in your class.

Why did you choose this RWLO?
Having just given a workshop that introduced the idea using Web 2.0 applications, I was looking for a practical example to give faculty hands-on experience of using such an application. This RWOL does just that.

RWLO Title: The Three Pound Miracle: The Brain

RWLO Address http://rwlo/users/10220/The%20Three%20Pound%20Miracle/COD-Pathways_RWLO_Revision_8-12-07.doc
Description: This RWLO has students use the Internet and a word processor to answer questions, list activities and create an essay about brain research as it connects to teaching and learning.
Your Course: (In what course will use the RWLO?) Educational Psychology
Rationale: (What need or requirement does this RWLO meet?)
Students in this course need to learn about and to use recent research about how humans learn at different ages and how they learn in different ways. This RWLO activity gives future teachers practice in RWLO use, active involvement with up to date research, critical thinking activities, and group collaboration. Ithis RWLO activity is student-centered and content driven.
Setting/Delivery: (How will you implement this RWLO - ex. Online? Lab? Presentation? Group work?, etc. If you plan to modify or adapt this RWLO, please include your ideas.)
This RWLO will start with a whole class presentation to orient students, individual Internet computer use, and a group collaboration to create a documented essay about applying recent brain research to the teaching/learning process (along with the implications of this recent research for new as well as experienced educators).  The parenthetical material is my modification of the RWLO.
Why did you choose this RWLO?
This RWLO is most relevant for future educators and can be used to further inform current educational practitioners. It presents information in an educationally appropriate way, in that it uses a student centered, interactive, and collaborative focus. Future teachers need activities like this one. It is unique and compelling, as well as specifically relevant to the current course objectives.

On-line Accessibily (sic. "Accessibility)

Useful for all our online courses at RVCC! It may be well within our lifetimes that all educational institutions will be required to be compliant with Section 508 and the Americans with Disabilities Act, which currently apply to all U.S. Government agency Websites. This RWLO will help me supplement what I have already learned at other Accessibility conferences and workshops.

We currently try to implement in all online courses at least the use of ALT and TITLE tags for images and hyperlinks, the use of HEADer tags for organizing blocks or sections of text by subject or by within-the-page bookmark, and some on-the-page navigation aids.

One major problem is that once an Instructional Designer or outside contributor has either constructed an A.D.A.-compliant Web page within a course or edited one to become compliant, the very next edit by a faculty member who is not paying attention to A.D.A. negates all we have done. A much more difficult task will be to educate all course instructors how to better make their courses more A.D.A.-compliant.
